- Comment: Hey, thanks for the submission! I am declining because I don't see significant coverage of Joseph Fink. Based on WP:RSP, we can't rely on primary, non-journalistic sources (like the Harper Collins listings of his own books) nor articles written in Forbes by contributors, not staff writers. It's appropriate to put info about Joseph Fink in the existing articles about Welcome to Night Vale and Alice Isn't Dead, but I would say that he doesn't qualify for a standalone article right now. Let me know if you have any questions! Crunchydillpickle🥒 (talk) 19:56, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
